At about the midpoint of the NC State basketball regular season, one positive is the Wolfpack's ability to grind out wins in the Lenovo Center. Outside of the 63-59 loss to Texas in early December, Kevin Keatts and his eighth team in Raleigh have enjoyed a mix of blowouts and gritty victories en route to their 9-1 home record, including one game in Reynolds Coliseum and a 2-0 mark in ACC play.
